Invisalign® in Suffern, NY

What is Invisalign?

Created using state-of-the-art 3-D technology, Invisalign’s clear aligners gently shift misaligned teeth into their proper position. These flexible, plastic braces are worn over the teeth. Because they are completely clear, no one will know you’re wearing braces. Invisalign aligners are replaced every six weeks until your teeth are finished shifting. Invisalign can correct a host of orthodontic issues just as effectively as traditional braces.

How Much Will Invisalign Cost?

When you visit our office for a consultation, one of our experienced Invisalign dentists will create an image of your mouth that serves as the blueprint for your custom aligners. Because of the personalized nature of the treatment, each patient’s Invisalign cost will vary. Schedule an appointment with our office to find out more about your specific Invisalign cost. You’ll also receive information about your insurance coverage and our flexible financing plans.

How Long Will Invisalign Take?

The average Invisalign treatment lasts one year. Patients with more severe orthodontic issues may be required to wear aligners longer. Only an Invisalign dentist can determine the length of your treatment. Our dentists know that patients are looking forward to seeing their results, so they develop the most efficient treatment plans possible.

Qualified Invisalign Dentists

When choosing Invisalign in Suffern, it is important to receive treatment from a dentist who has the proper training and experience. Only qualified Invisalign dentists can properly fit and examine the progress of Invisalign aligners. Our skilled dentists have years of experience working with patients of all ages. You’ll receive a personalized treatment plan that straightens your smile as efficiently as possible.

Choosing Between Invisalign vs. Braces

When deciding between Invisalign vs. braces, many patients choose Invisalign aligners because of  their appearance and ease of use. Invisalign is second to none when it comes to discreetly straightening teeth, and the removable aligner trays allow for easy cleaning and eating. While these factors are important,  proper orthodontic care is the top priority. If your orthodontic issues are severe, traditional braces may be a better treatment option for you. Only an experienced dentist can choose the course of treatment that meets your needs.

Benefits of Invisalign

Invisalign clear braces allow you to live your life without the hassle of metal wires and brackets. These aligners also allow you to:

• Consume the foods and beverages you love
• Remove aligners at any time
• Visit the dentist less often
• Enjoy a metal-free smile
• Experience a straighter, healthier smile

Am I a Candidate for Invisalign?

Invisalign in Suffern is a top choice among professional adults and older teens who wish to enjoy a metal-free smile. Most of the time, Invisalign is not recommended for children because their mouths are still developing. Typically, treatment involves wearing aligners on both rows of teeth to prevent further orthodontic issues. If you’re interested in learning more about how Invisalign can give you a straighter smile, contact our office to find out if you’re a candidate for Invisalign.

Is Invisalign Covered by Insurance?

Invisalign can be slightly more expensive than braces, but many patients feel its benefits make it well worth the investment. While some dental plans will cover clear aligners just as they would metal braces, other plans fail to provide Invisalign insurance. At our practice, we aim to offer affordable Invisalign to patients of all budgets. Our flexible payment options can help you manage the additional costs that are not covered by your insurance plan.

Teeth After Invisalign

After Invisalign, you’ll care for your teeth like you usually would by brushing, flossing, and using mouthwash daily. Scheduling regular dental exams and cleanings will also play a significant role in keeping your newly straightened teeth healthy. Some patients will require Invisalign retainers to maintain their results.
